Stud services
« on: September 07, 2009, 08:55:19 pm »
A young boy, about 12, answered a knock at the door.

"Is yer paw home?" a farmer asked.

"No sir, he ain't," the boy replied. "He went into town."

"Well," said the farmer, "is yer maw here?"

"No, sir, she ain't here neither. She went into town with pa."

"How about your brother, Howard. Is he here?"

"He went with ma and pa."

The farmer stood there for a minute, shifting from one foot to the other and mumbling to himself.

"Is there anything I can do fer ya?" the boy asked politely. "I knows where all the tools are, if you want to borry one. Or maybe I could take a message fer pa."

"Well," said the farmer uncomfortably, "I really wanted to talk to yer paw. It's about your brother, Howard, getting my daughter, Pearly Mae, pregnant."

The boy considered this for a moment. "You would have to talk to Pa about that", he finally conceded.

"If it helps you any, I know that Pa charges $50 for the bull and $25 for the hog, but I really don't know how much he gets fer Howard."
"I come from a state that raises corn and cotton and cockleburs and Democrats, and frothy eloquence neither convinces nor satisfies me. I am from Missouri. You have got to show me."  Duncan Vandiver

A boy can do half the work of a man, but two boys do less, and three boys get nothing done at all. :)

Someone really ought to tell them that the world of Ayn Rand?s novel was not meant to be aspirational.

I think I better go to bed before Kathy starts shooting. Good night, all.
